coveting, crochet and food
Saturday, May 22nd, 2010It’s been ages since I last wrote something for this site but in truth I haven’t been up to much. I did go out and purchase 4 new paint brushes with the intention to splat some paint here and there but as you can tell from my lack of news – it’s not happened. And yes the brushes are sat in their packaging, unused, in a pot on the windowsill.
I have begun a couple of hefty crochet projects. Both blanket themed. One started out as an experiment I can’t seem to stop and the other was typical ‘Amy being impatient’ behavior – wanting to begin another project before the first one is finished. Anyway, the crochet is proving very calming and when teamed up with a handful of audio books it makes the summer afternoons perfect. Right now though I’m sat at my new desk with my new view thinking it’s probably time for a coffee and wishing I’d purchased some cakes along with the cat treats and vegetables I bought this morning (above – you can spot the beginnings of blanket project number 2 and some of the vegetables just mentioned).
Since I’ve no new pictures to show you I thought I’d have a rummage through some of the etsy treasures I’ve been admiring recently and share those instead:
